Zongwu: Our Rivers and Lakes

Chapter 189 Tianshan Vulture ([-])
"My lord? Is it really you? My lord, the slaves have finally hoped for you to come back."

"My lord, you are back!"

"My lord, you are finally back. If you are not here, the servants don't know what to do during this time."

……

Seeing the little girl walking in front of the four swords of plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum, a group of Yingying and Yanyan from the Vulture Palace immediately came up to meet them. They were chattering, unknowingly dispelling the invisible depression.

"Okay, what should we do, don't stand in front of grandma."

Tianshan Child Elder said coldly, with a serious look on her face, but there was a gentleness and kindness in her eyes that couldn't be hidden.

……

Ling Yuxuan.

The small Tianshan Child Elder walked in, calmly sat down on the futon on the couch.

"Cyan Frost."

"Your Highness."

Cheng Lingsu heard his master calling him, and hurried forward a few steps, bowed his head and lowered his eyebrows, pretending to be obedient.

The Tianshan Child Elder took a sip of the tea, and the slight bitterness swayed in her mouth. She glanced at the handsome young man standing opposite her, with calm eyes like ancient pine, and raised her eyebrows.

"Grandma, I'm in seclusion during this time, and you can leave the matter on the mountain to him."

"This……?"

Cheng Qingshuang looked at Long Peng, her brows were furrowed, and her shock was beyond words.

"What? Is there a problem?"

The Tianshan Child Elder God was asking, with a smile on his lips.

"The subordinates dare not, but let Mr. Long take full charge of the affairs of our Vulture Palace, isn't it a bit inappropriate..."

Tianshan Child Elder didn't answer, but her gaze fell on Long Peng, obviously letting him handle it by himself, which made him a little helpless, lamenting that this old child, old child, is getting older, and his playfulness is getting more and more serious up.

"Miss Cheng, what do you think is wrong?"

Cheng Qingshuang spoke harshly, she was loyal to Tianshan Child Elder, but she didn't dare to refute her master's words on the spot, she was silent for a while, and then saw the petite, lively and lovely Ju Jian standing up, excitedly said, "I heard that your martial arts Very powerful, why don't you compete with us."

"Yeah, let's try it out." Zhu Jian raised the long sword in his hand, with a somewhat excited expression, agreed.

"Grandma, let Mr. Long compete with our four sisters."

As the leader of the four swords, Mei Jian went to Tianshan Child Elder and asked for instructions.

"Try..."

Hearing this, Tianshan Child Elder was in a bit of a dilemma. Regarding Long Peng's strength, she still had a clue, but she didn't want to let her four maids humiliate themselves. She pondered for a moment and said, "You little girls are not my opponents , don’t ask for trouble.”

As soon as this remark came out, the four daughters also showed a little dissatisfaction on their faces, but they didn't say anything to refute. They all lowered their heads, "What grandma said is true, let the maid know..."

"Oh~"

Long Peng smiled, thinking of avoiding troubles in getting along with each other in the future, he said, "Since you want to compete, I'll find someone to play with you."

"Jinfeng, come in."

The tall and slender woman waiting outside the door was startled slightly, and walked into the room. She looked around, and finally landed on Long Peng, "My subordinates greet you, Da Keqing!"

"Get up."

Long Peng waved his hand, and said casually, "You and these four little girls go outside to play, remember, click as soon as possible."

"Subordinates obey!!"

Jin Feng respectfully accepted the order, and walked towards the four daughters with a sword in hand, her pretty face was frosty, exuding a penetrating chill, which made the four daughters feel strange, obviously this sister was easy to get along with last night, why did she suddenly get so angry.

Under the guidance of Long Peng.

Her martial arts has advanced by leaps and bounds, and now she is only a thin line away from the innate realm, and she has also practiced "Great Freedom Sword" to a high degree of proficiency. Although it may feel a little tricky to compete with the four girls, it is just tricky.

For her.

Long Peng treated her first with the kindness of knowledge, and then with the kindness of teaching career. He had long regarded him as a person who would be loyal to him all his life. !

The five people walked out of the room and came to the courtyard outside. I don't know what Jinfeng said, which made the four girls furious, and they immediately fought, with sword shadows and sword sounds shrill.

Long Peng looked at it from a distance, and with a mentality of watching the show, he teased, "Child Elder, should we go out and have a look?"

"No need."

Tianshan Child Elder didn't hesitate, she directly refused, she could see that the golden phoenix's martial arts was superior to the four girls, one by one, the four girls had little chance of winning, she didn't want to go out and lose face.

"Ha ha……"

Long Peng smiled, and didn't force it, but looked up at Cheng Qingshuang who looked out from time to time, and said lightly, "Miss Cheng, if you want to watch it, go and watch it, and you can end it if you want."

Cheng Qingshuang immediately looked away, and imitated her master in a serious manner, "No need."

"Misunderstanding..."

Long Peng shook his head, sat opposite Tianshan Child Elder, poured himself a cup of tea, drank it slowly, and commented a few words, leaving the two people in the room speechless for a while.

You are familiar with yourself.

moment.

Jinfeng stepped into the house, dressed in a black robe that was spotless, while the four girls behind her hung their heads with the defeated rooster, dejectedly, without the previous high spirits. Obviously Jinfeng won very easily, and she half Kneeling down, he said loudly, "Your subordinate, it's a good luck not to disgrace your life!!"

"Yes, Not Bad!"

Long Peng smiled, his red and phoenix eyes almost narrowed together, he looked a bit like a fox, a cunning black fox.

"Grandma, we..."

"If you lose, you lose. It's no big deal, just go to the logistics to practice martial arts."

Tianshan Child Elder didn't finish talking to the four daughters, and continued, "Okay, you guys go down and wash up too, what does this disheveled face look like?"

"Yes……"

The four girls responded weakly, and before they left, they took a look at Cheng Qingshuang, probably meaning that they were sorry.

"Miss Cheng, how are my subordinates?"

Cheng Qingshuang's eyes flickered, and he said in a deep voice, "Mr. Long's subordinates are all elite soldiers and strong generals, the little girl admires them."

"I would like to listen to the master's orders."

"It's so good, I thought you wanted to make two gestures."

heard.

The expression on Cheng Qingshuang's face changed slightly, she lowered her head and said nothing.

What she doesn't want to admit is that she did have this idea just now, but thinking of the series of rumors about "Blood Avalokitesvara" from the outside world, she backed down.

The name of a person, the shadow of a tree, just as Tianshan Child Elder said: Don't ask for trouble.

"Even so, then you can arrange my room next to Child Elder, I guess I will live here for a while, and all the facilities must be arranged."

Cheng Qingshuang looked up at Child Elder Tianshan, and seeing that she did not object, she understood that Child Elder Tianshan trusted Long Peng very much, and said loudly, "It should be so."

"Mr. Long, do you have any other orders?"

Long Peng was silent for a moment, then said slowly, "It's business. I'll let Jinfeng chat with you later, if you're standing... tell me, where does Granny Sun from the Ancient Tomb Sect live?"

Cheng Qingshuang was stunned for a moment, she didn't expect Long Peng to ask this matter, she didn't know the relationship between Long Peng and Granny Sun, she was a little curious in her heart, she couldn't help asking, "I don't know, what is Mr. Long looking for Granny Sun?"

"This is Long's business, you just need to execute it."

Long Peng stood up, with a tall figure and a pine-like posture, a pair of cold eyes fell on Cheng Qingshuang, making her feel her body was cold and her chest was breathless.

"Ahem...how old are you, and you still like to scare people?"

Tianshan Child Elder suddenly coughed twice, breaking the suffocating atmosphere.

She said this.

Cheng Qingshuang's eyes gradually regained clarity, and he took a deep breath, with a drop of cold sweat dripping from the corner of his forehead. Unknowingly, he felt afraid of the masked man in front of him, and sighed: This man is really a big devil in the Jianghu. The good thing is, he still showed his true nature, but he was so polite to ask Grandma Sun for something. It was rumored in the rivers and lakes that this person had a personal enmity with the Ancient Tomb Sect. Could it be that he didn’t even keep an old woman? Why did the Lord trust him so much?No, I have to put him in prison...

"Miss Cheng, why are you so absorbed in your thoughts?"

Hearing that cold voice, Cheng Qingshuang came back to her senses and stopped thinking about it, "Grandma Sun's place is not far from here, so I'll let someone take you there."

After finishing speaking, she called a disciple from Vulture Palace and led Long Peng and others away.

"Don't look at me, little girl. People are far away. If you look at your eyes again, the beads are all stuck to her body."

Cheng Qingshuang blushed pretty, and felt embarrassed, "Grandma, don't talk nonsense, I don't mean that."

When there are no outsiders on weekdays.

Tianshan Child Elder gets along very casually with those close to the palace, people call her "Grandma" instead of the cold "Lord".

"Then why don't you blush with a bubble teapot?" Tianshan Child Elder raised her eyebrows and said.

"Grandma~"

Cheng Qingshuang's voice became sticky and greasy, and she acted coquettishly, "I'm worried that this person will make some noise, it's really not what you said..."

"Okay... Grandma knows..."

"Grandma is cunning, cunning, and ambitious. It is said in the world that he will do anything to achieve his goals. Why did you bring him to the mountain?"

"This one……"

Tianshan Child Elder pondered for a while, her eyes flickered, and she said earnestly, "You have to see people yourself, instead of just listening to others' words and taking it seriously, otherwise, you will become deaf and blind."

"This... this subordinate has been taught..."

"Ah."

Tianshan Child Elder nodded, looking at the spring scene in the courtyard outside, "Remember, this kid can be trusted. I'm going to retreat for a while, so you just follow his orders."

"Yes."

Cheng Qingshuang lowered her head and answered, but there was still a little doubt in her eyes.

……

In front of a relatively secluded courtyard.

"Mr. Long, Grandma Sun lives here."

The Vulture Palace disciple didn't dare to look up at Long Peng, but added, "Miss Long who lived here before has left, so Grandma Sun lives here alone. We think this place is too deserted, so we invited her several times. , She said she was used to living here and didn’t want to change places, so we didn’t force her.”

"..."

After listening quietly, Long Peng waved his hand, indicating that she could leave, and then he stood at the door for a long time.

"My dear guest, why don't you go in and check it out first?"

Jin Feng suggested.

Long Pengjian frowned slightly, glanced sideways at her, remained silent for a few breaths, and said slowly, "No need, you go back first, I will come to find you afterward."

Jin Feng was startled, glanced at Cheng Lingsu who had been silent all this time, and nodded slowly.

"Subordinates retire."

Wait until Jinfeng's figure goes away.

Only then did Cheng Lingsu ask with concern, "Long Peng, what's wrong with you, it's because of the people living inside..."

"Ah."

Long Peng nodded, feeling a sense of homelessness in his heart.

call--

The winter wind is very cold, and it hurts like a knife when it hangs on a person's face.

Cheng Lingsu shrank her small head and let the wide hood cover her face. She was born weak. Although she is wearing thick clothes now, she still feels cold after standing in the fierce cold wind for a long time, and her delicate body can't help but feel cold. trembling slightly.

"..."

Long Peng noticed that he felt a little annoyed, and then naturally embraced her in his arms, conveying warm Qi, and said softly, "Little fool, you feel cold, don't you know how to resist it? "

Cheng Lingsu was still not used to such bold behavior of Long Peng, her little face was slightly red, she curled her lips, and said in a low voice unconvinced, "It's not like everyone is like you, walking, sitting and lying down can exercise internal strength..."

"you……"

Long Peng was stunned for a moment, then laughed dumbly, "Yes, you are right."

"Humph."

Cheng Lingsu snorted softly, her cherry lips were translucent red, very attractive, and her face became more and more beautiful, "I don't know how to be ashamed, how can anyone praise themselves."

"Didn't you see it now?"

"shameless."

"Oh~"

Long Peng smiled softly, leaned close to the little girl's ear, his fiery breath hit her neck numbly, and she felt a little uncomfortable, so he laughed and said, "Shameless, but I want you..."

"lecher."

The little girl's ears turned red immediately, and she wanted to push him, but she couldn't bear it after all. She moved symbolically, but it seemed like she was flirting, although...it was like this...

"Hahaha……"

Long Peng laughed happily a few times, after such an interruption from her, his mood improved a lot, and he knew in his heart that she did it on purpose to ease his emotions, so he couldn't help being moved.

I saw a tall man holding a little girl's slender waist and pushing the half-closed wooden door. The wooden wind chime hanging on the door made the sound of "frame-frame-".

"Who is it?"

An old voice came from the yard.

Under the blooming red plum tree, a plainly dressed, stooped old lady walked slowly over with a dragon-headed cane.

She walked very slowly, but her footprints were very shallow, as if she had light kung fu beside her, she walked all the way, coughed all the way, and when she reached the door, an ugly but kind face with a faint and peaceful smile appeared next to her. In the eyes of Long Peng and the others.

"You are……"

Grandma Sun raised her head and saw that Long Peng was startled at first, his eyes sparkled with brilliance, but they dimmed again after a while, and when he saw the plain-clothed girl in his arms, his expression became even more hesitant.

"The Vulture Palace does not allow men to enter the palace, you...cough cough...how did you get in."

"Grandma, don't you recognize me?"
